About Me
Chiro is a small yellow and white she-wolf with black brindle stripes on her back along with amber eyes. Like most Plains Pack wolves, she does not have wings.
Her small size gives her an advantage on the plains were she live, allowing her to bolt into rabbit holes. Her markings keep her hidden among the grass and dirt. Very rarely will she approach the trees, were she might be ambushed. She knows that if she stays to the open, she'll be able to hear the noises their feathers make in the wind and see them in time to move.
Chiro is a very cautious warrior. She will avoid battle, for she is the one of the only wolves in her pack, but, if she dose somehow get into a fight, she is very fast, and can easily dodge a blow.
She dose not have any powers.
She would love to have a mate, but hasn't found a good one yet.
Chiro is a warrior of Plains Pack.
Econ is Chiro's half-brother. He is a small tan and white sire with blue eyes. (Unlike Chiro, I did not draw this picture.) Again, like most Plains Pack wolves, he dose not have wings.
Econ is as unlike Chiro as you can get. Instead of seeing his small size as an advantage, he sees it as a weakness, almost constantly complaining about it. He is very bold. Walking right up to the border and confronting any intruder. He has the strength Chiro dose not, and dose not hesitate in battle to go for the throat.
Econ has the power of invisibility. The only problem about this is he still leaves trails through the long grass.
He doesn't have a mate yet.
Econ is a warrior of Plains Pack.

Furious 7 star Michelle Rodriguez turned fans' stomachs by chewing on a mouse cooked in her own urine on a survival show.
The Latina was filming Running Wild with Bear Grylls episode, which aired on Monday night (10Aug15), when the adventurer host suggested they dine on a dead rodent when their food supplies ran low while trekking across Nevada's Valley of Fire State Park.
And as if the squeaky treat wasn't bad enough, Brit Grylls convinced the actress to boil the mouse in her own pee - and then drink the broth.
Rodriguez clearly wasn't happy about her meal options, stating, "This is the part I dreaded", before adding, "I'm kinda happy it's my p**s and not yours."
But the boiled mouse aside, Rodriguez clearly enjoyed her adventure with survivalist Grylls, tweeting, "Love you Bear you rock, Thank you for pushing my limits" on Monday (10Aug15)."

It doesn't star an Oscar winner, but made $60 million at the box office.

"Greek" is up (or down?) from the No. 10 slot, besting three new additions to the list, including "Machete," "Predators" and "Hole in One," an "American Pie"-meets-"Caddyshack" comedy notable mostly because it features the acting talents of David Ellison, son of Oracle founder Larry Ellison and proprietor of a $350 million film finance fund.

UNITED wunderkind Darren Fletcher could take his domestic bow for the Reds at Villa Park after his performance against FC Basle in midweek.
The flying Scot impressed many, not least Sir Alex Ferguson, with his long awaited first team debut against the Swiss side in the Champions League and, with a midfield injury crisis looming, his manager may look to continue Fletcherés top flight education by handing him another chance against Villa.
Roy Keane and Juan Veron are already ruled out of the clash against the out of form Villa, with Nicky Butt also a real doubt for making the trip after picking up an ankle knock during the draw with Basle.
However, the team is likely to be at least closer to a recognisable United side, with David Beckham, Fabien Barthez, Paul Scholes, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Ryan Giggs in line to start, and Mikael Silvestre expected to return at left back.
Ole Solskjaer is likely to retain his place in the team should Butt fail to recover in time with United looking to continue their unbeaten Premiership run to 10 games in a row.
Villa boss Graham Taylor is set to keep faith with former United hitman Dion Dublin and midfielder Joey Gudjonsson despite their dismissals against Birmingham.
Turkish defender Alpay could feature at Villa Park for the first time this season, with Steve Staunton, Ian Taylor, Mark Delaney and Juan Pablo Angel all ruled out.
Key Clash: David Beckham v Gareth Barry
Englandés captain and midfield maestro goes head to head with a man many pundits have been calling for to be donning the three lions on a regular basis. Beckham is likely to take up his usual right-sided berth in the Reds midfield after temporarily taking to the bench during the midweek draw with FC Basle in midweek. Having had a rare, albeit curtailed, rest, the talismanic number seven will be champing at the bit to take control of Unitedés injury hit midfield.
Barry has enjoyed a run of form that belies Villaés recent slump, scoring in three of their last five Premiership games and settling comfortably into left midfield that has seen him notch up 37 appearances for the team already this season.
Key stats:
- United go into the game unbeaten in their last nine Premiership matches é seven of which have been won.
- Villa have lost their last three games, including the fractuous 2-0 defeat by Brum rivals Birmingham city. They have not beaten United in eight league and cup meetings.
- Aston Villa last lost four league games on the bounce in January 2000, when they slumped to Chelsea, Liverpool, Leeds and Manchester United.
- Two more goals for United will take them to 100 from their League and Cup campaign this season.
- Villa, on the other hand, have failed to score in 14 of their 29 Premiership matches this term.
Form guide:
Villa: WWLLL
Utd: WWDDW
Last season:
Aston Villa 1 Manchester United 1
Head to head:
Manchester United: Pl: 155; won 72; drawn 35; lost 48.
Aston Villa 0 Manchester United 2
Will United continue their Premiership unbeaten streak? Have your say.

Without doubt, the Nigerian Aviation industry has recorded some tremendous progress and stakeholders agree unequivocally that the successes achieved in the 50 plus years since independence have been due to new players in the Aviation sector both locally and internationally. There are key players in the industry and one of those players who have been making giant strides within the Nigerian airspace and beyond is British Airways.
|Winners of British Airways Leaders of Tomorrow Season 1, Adachie Gabriel Eneojo, Peter Fajemisin and British Airways CEO, Keith Williams during the presentation of certificate to the winners in London, recently.
Having recognised the rich pool of human potentials in the sector, the British Airways announced the launch of a capacity building initiative which it tagged, 'Leaders of Tomorrow'. The initiative which was targeted at students from Nigeria College of Aviation Technology College (NCAT), Zaria, Kaduna, was aimed at further deepening British Airways commitment to meeting the manpower needs in the Nigerian Aviation industry.
According to the Country Commercial Manager (West Africa), British Airways, Mr. Kola Olayinka, the idea was also part of a larger plan that the global airline was deploying to contribute to the development of the country's Aviation sector. Mr. Olayinka added that the initiative was designed to bridge the gap between the classroom and the actual work environment, noting that the international airline is passionate about supporting talents by providing them with veritable platform on which they can learn and gain experience in their chosen fields.
Already, the initiative has started yielding fruits. Through Leaders of Tomorrow, British Airways has successfully impacted the lives of six young Nigerians from the Nigeria College of Aviation Technology (NCAT), Zaria who eventually emerged winners of the project. The winners were Abimbola Caulcrick, a student of Abridged Airframe and Power plant (AAP-8); Fajemisin Peter Adebola; Adachie Gabriel Eneojo, both Post Graduate students in Aviation Management; Banigo Michael; Ubong George Itok, both studying Standard Airframe & Power plant (AP-27) and Ogunranti Olaluwa, a student of Abridged Avionics (AAVO-13).
The six of them were given an opportunity to undergo a two-week internship at British Airways head office in Nigeria as well as pay a week visit to the company's global office at London Heathrow, where they met with Keith Williams, the Chief Executive Officer of British Airways.
Recounting his experience in London, one of the winners, Eneojo, now a Business Development Manager with Wakanow.com courtesy British Airways, said meeting the Chief Executive Officer of British Airways is an experience he cannot forget in a hurry.
He added, "The thrill for me was visiting the headquarters and seeing the level of organization and structure British Airways possesses. The high point was meeting the CEO and being able to present Nigerian Aviation industry from the perspective of a student as well as a fast learning and growing professional."
He remarked that the international training has exposed him to the rudimentary requirements of the Aviation industry globally, adding that it has also helped him improve on his work role at Wakanow.com.
On his part, Peter Fajemisin, who is presently in the employ of the airline said the internship gave him an insight into the cross-cultural dimensions of global business operations. Fajemisin stressed that, "Internship at British Airways gave me an opportunity to grow professionally. The comprehensive training and hands on experience during the internship also gave me an edge over my peers in the industry."
Aside the visit to the London head office, the winners also visited the Airlines Engineering base, the world class Training centre-Crane bank in London and even flew the 747 on the BA simulator. At the end of the internship, they all received a British Airways accredited certification from the CEO to mark their graduation from the Leaders of Tomorrow Academy.
After having experienced on a first -hand global Aviation practice as well global business operations, the beneficiaries showered encomiums on British Airways for conceiving such initiative which has profited them in many ways than one.

(Bloomberg) A federal appeals court upheld a sentence that didn't include prison time for H. Ty Warner, the billionaire creator of Beanie Babies plush toys, who evaded $5.6 million in taxes after hiding money in a Swiss bank account.
The ruling Friday by the appeals court in Chicago was a setback for U.S. prosecutors, who argued that Warner deserved at least a year in prison after pleading guilty. A three-judge panel ruled the sentence of two years of probation and 500 hours of community service at three Chicago-area schools was appropriate.
The panel said the sentencing judge cited Warner's charitable giving, his unsuccessful attempt to disclose the account to the Internal Revenue Service, and his civil penalty of $53.6 million. Warner also paid $14 million in back taxes and interest, and gave $140 million in cash and toys to charities, according to his lawyers.
"The district judge found Warner's record of charity and benevolence overwhelming,'" the panel wrote. "The court here did not abuse its discretion. Rather, it fully explained and supported its decision and reached an outcome that is reasonable under the unique circumstances of this case."
Warner's evasion was the largest of more than 100 cases brought since 2009 against taxpayers and enablers who used offshore accounts to cheat the IRS. Failing to win a prison term might weaken the hand of prosecutors in other cases around the U.S. Judges have great discretion in imposing sentences, and can be overturned only if they acted unreasonably.
Sentencing Affirmed
Joseph Fitzpatrick, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office in Chicago, declined to comment. Warner attorney Gregory R. Scandaglia said he was gratified that U.S. District Judge Charles Kocoras's sentencing was affirmed.
"Mr. Warner accepted responsibility for his actions," Scandaglia said in an e-mail. "He has paid over $80 million in penalties, fines and taxes to the federal government. He has also eagerly fulfilled his community service program and looks forward to continuing his work with students."
The appellate panel said Kocoras acted correctly on procedural and substantive grounds. Prosecutors said he put too much weight on his charitable contributions and letters of support, and too little on the seriousness of the crime, deterrence to others and a comparison with other offenders.
While prosecutors disputed Warner's claim that he gave away $140 million, saying he only gave $35.7 million, the key was what it revealed about his character, the judges wrote. The judge's conclusion was within his discretion, they said.
Get-Out-of-Jail Card'
The panel disputed the argument by prosecutors that Warner used his wealth as a "get-out-of-jail card." Rather, the judge "looked behind the numbers to Warner's character and found him to be a genuinely benevolent person."
Prosecutors also chose to charge him with only a single count of tax evasion and recommend a year and a day in prison, well below the advisory range of 46 to 57 months, the panel wrote. Warner paid a $53.6 million penalty—or half of the high balance of his undeclared offshore assets.
"If $53.6 million were insufficient, the government could have insisted on more before entering into the plea agreement," according to the panel.
The judges also disagreed with the government's emphasis on four other tax offenders who got a year and a day in prison with far lower evasions than Warner. The panel said the law forbids "unwarranted" sentencing disparities.
"Warner is not similar to the government's comparators," the panel wrote. "None of them offered evidence of significant charity or otherwise impressed the district court with their personal character, as Warner did."
It also noted that probation is a common sentence in offshore tax evasion cases.
The appellate case is U.S. v. Warner, 14-1330, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit (Chicago). The lower-court case is U.S. v. Warner, 13-cr-00731, U.S. District Court, Northern District of Illinois (Chicago).

Africa Now is a 2-day festival that focuses on spotlighting Africa's burgeoning Music Scene. Presented by non-profit organization the World Music Institute, this year's events will feature artists from West Africa. Malian songstress Fatoumata Diawara, Senegalese trio Les Frères Guissé and Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars (SLRAS) will all perform at the event hosted at Harlem's legendary Apollo theater.
" "The most beguiling talent to hit the world music scene in some time" (The Telegraph), Malian songstress Fatoumata Diawara has created her own distinct contemporary folk sound, inspired by Wassoulou tradition, jazz, and blues. She adds an African spin to the concept of the female singer-songwriter. At the center of the music is her warm, affecting voice; spare, rhythmical guitar playing; and gorgeously melodic songs that draw powerfully on love, politics and her own often-troubled experience. And can she DANCE!
Trio Les Frères Guissé, originating from the Fouta region in Senegal, continue in the rich musical legacy paved by Ali Farka Touré, Kar Kar (Boubakar Traoré) and Seydina. Beautiful and sensitive, their close harmonic singing, primarily in Peulh and Wolof, swirls around the melodies of two acoustic guitars and subdued percussion – and mesmerizes the audiences they encounter.
Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars (SLRAS) celebrates their 10th anniversary and the launch of their new CD, Libation, with this special concert performance. Joining forces in refugee camps while their homeland was being racked by years of bloody warfare, the band members overcame struggle with the redemptive power of music. Fusing traditional West African music with roots reggae, the SLRAS catalogue is full of bubbling rhythms, irresistible hooks, intricate dub elements, "buoyant grooves and fierce optimism"(NPR). They have become one of Africa's most active touring bands, embraced by audiences worldwide for their unique sound and their utterly extraordinary story."

The Foreigner 2017 720p Hindi[Line] HC HDRip x265 AAC [600MB] |GDRIVE LINKS|WATCH ONLINE
The story of humble London businessman Quan (Chan), whose long-buried past erupts in a revenge-fueled vendetta when the only person left for him to love – his teenage daughter – is taken from him in a senseless act of politically-motivated terrorism. In his relentless search for the identity of the terrorists, Quan is forced into a cat- and-mouse conflict with a British government official (Brosnan), whose own past may hold clues to the identities of the elusive killers.

Ngoc Minh Quan is a retired Vietnam War special forces operator who now runs a Chinese restaurant in London. When his teenage daughter Fan is killed in a department store bombing claimed by a group calling themselves the "Authentic IRA", a distraught Quan seeks revenge. He first attempts to bribe Scotland Yard officer Richard Bromley for the names of the bombers, but Bromley refuses to accept the bribe nor reveal any information. Quan next focuses on Irish deputy minister Liam Hennessy, who speaks publicly about his status as a former leader of the Provisional IRA while condemning the bombing. Keyi Lam, Quan's co-worker and personal friend, attempts to console and convince him to move on, but he refuses to be swayed and eventually leaves for Belfast to meet Hennessy. Hennessy claims to have no knowledge of the bombing or its perpetrators, but Quan does not believe him. His queries escalate until he becomes fixated on Hennessy, setting off a homemade bomb in his office and threatening more unless he gets the bombers' names.
The truth is that Hennessy, while having ordered the bombings to come with warnings as part of a political ploy to solidify the radical factions, does not actually know who the bombers are, as they are rogue members of the IRA. He is in fact outraged that no warnings were given and civilians were killed. Hennessy tries to identify the bombers by changing the code words they use after any bombings are carried out, but the rogue members catch on and outwit him. Meanwhile, he sends numerous mercenaries and personal enforcers after Quan, who manages to escape or defeat all of them. He also observes Hennessy meeting with his mistress, Maggie, and takes a picture of them kissing. Quan then brings the fight to Hennessy, hiding in the woods outside his Belfast farmhouse and attacking it with more homemade bombs. As Hennessy's men attempt to track him in the woods, Quan uses traps to disable a group of three and attempts to interrogate one of them, but he is shot in the shoulder by a fourth mercenary and flees. Hennessy decides to send for his nephew Sean Morrison, who was part of the Royal Irish Regiment with Bromley, after Quan in hopes that his tracking skills can be used to stop him for good.

Rustic Canyon Loop Trail is a 4.6 mile moderately trafficked loop trail located near Riviera, California that features a waterfall and is only recommended for very experienced adventurers. The trail offers a number of activity options and is accessible year-round.
mountain biking
nature trips
trail running
off trail
no dogs
NOTE: Please read comments and reviews before hiking this trail. There have been recent reports of the trail being washed out and very poorly marked in the swamp. It is recommended that you take the loop clockwise up the inspiration point trail. The rocks coming down are very steep.
i did this tail about a year ago. the first half of the loop was fun but after the decent, well, i didn't expect to be knee deep in creek. i had a friend with me who very much did not like the second half of this trail.
Please be careful if you do decide to attempt this counter-clockwise.
I made the mistake of assuming this will be a reasonably moderate adventurous run (since I'm very familiar with the trails around here and am often found there when not working). The trail is washed out so you'll be bouncing left and right across the creek quite often. It gets slippery at certain parts (when most of the rocks have algae / moss). If you're careful and have good traction shoes, that part can be doable. But please be careful! Now when I hit the artificial waterfall, I didn't see anything there (I somehow missed the rope leading up the wall). I instead traced back 0.1mi and found a way to scramble up on the left side to what seemed to be a trail. I had tried to go somewhere on the right but the gates were all locked up and my mab showed that left side was reasonable. But I think the trail I ended up on was abandoned, since it ended. I slipped at one point and kept on sliding. Managed to find a way to hold on to branches, and out of fear of falling kept going up, holding on to whatever I can (which is hard given that there were only a few degraded sandstone pieces that were breaking off, a minimal amount of branches, and lots of dead leaves.) Ended up needing rescuing. Never thought I would ever need that in my life, and certainly not in my backyard.
I admit my decision-making seems off (fear does wonders), but please be careful and don't underestimate this path. And as people suggested, perhaps try to go clockwise or go with a few friends so you can keeo each other in check and not get lost / hurt.
Enjoy the trails and be smarter than me!
We did this hike on April 12th. The front side of the hike is great, easy assent and beautiful views. The back side is a different story. After you reach the top you will wind your way around to a small trail that switchbacks down the slope, this trail is nice and easily navigable. At the bottom you will find some of the abandoned structures that are shown in the photos above. After this point the hike becomes rapidly less enjoyable. The trail is not maintained and you are essentially hoping back and forth from on side to the other of a creek. This annoyance was compounded by the large amounts of poison oak, if we hadn't both had long pants and sleeves we wouldn't have made it out without having some rashes. We are both seasoned hikers and enjoy difficult and technical hiking, but the backside of this trail is just pointlessly frustrating. My suggestion is to make it an out and back to the top.
Loved this trail for 4 out of 4.8 miles(going clockwise) BUT as many reviews (and park ranger will tell you) it just vanishes in the lowland swampy area. You can do it but give yourself plenty of time, light and phone battery because it's not maintained at all.
Otherwise, this hike is fantastic, great elevation, beautiful vistas, lots of cool canyons and mountains back there.
Watch out for poison oak on the back side (going clockwise) it's EVERYWHERE.
Not well maintained, trail difficult to follow
Really hard to find the trailhead (our GPS was off), but the loop was nice once we got going. We trekked clockwise, so there were great views for the first third, followed by a steep decline into the canyon (watch out for loose rocks), ending with a pretty technical ~1.5 mile stretch through the riverbed. Decent outing for sure, but you absolutely MUST check yourself for ticks afterwards.
Great hike but I only did one half of the loop because I got a little lost. I started at the inspiration point around 3pm. I missed the trail that leads to the creek(maybe because of the overgrown land?). But then it felt like I was getting no where and there aren't many signs, only the "backbone trail" one. I got service and realized I just kept walking straight and I was already about 2 miles away from the rustic loop trail. Can be pretty adventurous and spooky at 6pm. So make sure you go with enough day light, or just don't get lost like I did hah
Some gorgeous views from along the ridge, although at the moment the trail portion along the creek going out from Will Rodgers is overgrown and not easily passable. Can be a cool setting but it is tough going along the creek.
Actually hiked this last week -loved it!! Started at end of polo field - counterclockwise. Once you get to the creek, you will be crossing back and forth. Someone has used red paint to try and help people stay on the trail, but it's easier to see if you are heading clockwise. You start on the west side of the creek, but pretty quickly cross to the east side. As soon as you cross keep looking on the opposite side for the trail to pick up. You will be going back and forth far awhile! When you get to the waterfall, and you don't feel like using a rope to climb up the wall near the waterfall - approx .05 - .1 miles before the waterfall, look on the opposite of the creek and you will see stairs going up. At the top of the stairs, very quickly, you will see a path on your right which will take you to the top of the waterfall. From there, just scramble up the hill and continue with the loop! Recommend wearing shoes with a lot of tread so you can get traction crawling over the boulders in the creek and scrambling up the hills (at times I was grabbing the roots of various bushes to help pull myself up!) Challenging, but incredibly fun!!!
This is a hard trail in the sense that when you get to the creek the path deteriorates fast. There are a few ribbons and graffiti along the way to let you know you're ok. If you follow the water down you will eventually get to a sign that says Trail End. And then you go right (another sign saying Will Rogers).
Do this hike when there is no rain. The riverbed will fill up a lot and cause slippery and water hazard conditions. Also, wear pants and throw on some bug spray for good measure.
It's awesome and fun.
If you're bringing children, a dog, or anybody afraid to descend rock faces, don't do the whole loop. If you aren't taking any of those things and want to do the whole loop, go clockwise. The eastern half of the loop, along Rustic Creek, is poorly defined and dangerously steep in some places. Seriously, there are one or two sections where you have to ascend/descend 25 feet up a near vertical rock face and sometimes the only apparent route forward is to walk in the creek. Stay near the creek, as getting lost is very easy. The brush is overgrown. Avoid the poison oak.
That said, the challenge of this section made hiking it a rewarding experience. But it's definitely not for everybody.
In contrast, the western half of the loop, up the backbone trail, is beautiful. It is well maintained and the views are great. It wasn't crowded even on a Sunday and suitable for any hiker or dog.
Went counter clock wise into the canyon. Took us the wrong way and led us climbing the side of the mountain. The map said we were in the right spot but we were not, I slipped and tumbled 20 feet but luckily clinged to a tree branch. DO NOT RECOMMEND. Trail is terribly marked in the swamp and you got lost so easily. Go clockwise up the inspiration point trail. That way is beautiful
I haven't done hiking for a while before I decided to go on this trail. My husband and started on the eastern side and I'm glad we did. I can't imagine how average hiker will deal with it. It's not so moderate - you basically have to climb the rock at your own risk. For us it was very adventurous and fun, but looking back now I think we were "playing with devil" going up the pretty steep rocks without any insurance. Overall I have say if you're an experienced hiker you'd love doing this hike, it gives a variety of challenges and the views are breathtaking, but if you're not, then better stick to the Inspiration Point trail.
Thinking of taking your dog here? DONT.
If you decide to go here make sure to take military 8 inch high boots so that you don't have water getting in your shoes. But even then you'll still need some gators. The eastern portion of the hike down Will Rogers Trail is not visible. It is literally walking thru the river in water that is stagnant and so full of algae it clings unto you.
Also, make sure you have the downloaded maps or an actual map because the trail has not been kept in years and half the time you'll be deciding wether you're still on the trail. By the way for some of you adventurer folk that seek to go here when the river has not subsided to an acceptable level, beware: DEATH!
If you were to go thru this river while it is high you wouldn't make it out. Even while it's low at 6 inches--4ft in some places, the algae causes you to slip. Trekking poles would be of no use as you are basically walking thru the river and playing 'Chicken Limbo' underneath tree trunks.
Furthermore, please do not subject your dogs to this hike it is horrible for them. My dog made it but we have been hiking for a while since she was young. As for other dogs they need to be carried thru major portions of it. Either way, it is completely unenjoyable for them. Good luck. Make sure to have your hands free so that you don't crack your head open when you slip.
Whoever marked this trail as "moderate" probably did not do the full loop as it is shown. I started at the polo fields parking lot and went counterclockwise, starting with the creek portion. The maintained trail officially "ends" when you reach the creek, so to continue on the loop as shown on this map there's about a mile or two of leaping on boulders across the stream, traversing the steep and slippery rocks on the side of the stream, ducking under and climbing over fallen trees, grabbing onto branches so you don't fall in the water, and when you reach the waterfall, using a rope to climb straight up a rock wall 20 feet. Moderate, my ass. There's a reason why most people who track this trail don't complete the full loop as it's mapped. That being said, the hike is a lot of fun. Just be prepared to use your hands, get dirty, muddy, and very creative.
If you would like it to be easier I would suggest going down the mountain instead of up. It was helpful to have gps on this app since the trail isn't always marked.
Tried to do the canyon part of this hike and the trail was closed. It says it is closed until June 15, 2017. So FYI. I ended up doing the inspiration point trail and then added to it by going up to the junction where you would head back down into the canyon past the highest point of the rustic loop. Then I turned around and came back down the way I came. Good hike even thought it wasn't what I had set out to do. The hike up wasn't that hard even though you go 900ft.
We did the hike counter-clockwise, ascending up Rustic Canyon.
The biggest issue is the over-grown factor when you're going up Rustic - plus there is a ton of graffiti. Once you get to the backbone you're 70% complete, and the views are fantastic.
Next time we'll probably skip the loop and do it clockwise - and once we hit the ridge just turn around and make it an out-and-back.
Paul E.
Definitely not for beginners. The start of the trail from the end of the Polo field is sign posted "not maintained" they're not kidding. After the first part of the trail winds off down to the creek bed the trail literally does not exist for a mile. So only walk this way if you plan on scaling rocks and getting wet. If you walk into the trail past the dry creek going clock wise from inspiration point then only traverse the creek if you are experienced.
Great trail for more experienced hikers! We took the trail clockwise starting from the top of the canyons which has some amazing views of the coastline from Malibu all the way down to palos verdes. About two miles in it takes a turn down deeper in to the mountain where it's pretty steep and rocky. Not too bad but then it starts to get harder once you reach the waterfall where you have to find your way down (about three stories from the top) and the trail is much harder to find. After finding our way down past a beehive and swarm of bees we followed along the river where the trail is sometimes on and off the river. There are some parts where you need to cross the water and or climb rocks along the side where you can easily lose your footing. We did consider turning back because we were pretty stumped on how to continue along the trail, almost went in to panic mode when we thought we were lost and would have to go all the way back lol. Once you reach the end of the river/trail you'll see the orange sign telling you the trail ends. Best feeling ever. Definitely one for the books. Oh and beware of beetles doing yoga, do not crush them
Unfortunately I failed it! Went counterclockwise and lost trail just passed the water fall area. It is not well maintained but it has amazing sight! Had lots if fun and will be back to conquer it! Ita more of a harder short trail ! You will get wet!
It's tough and beautiful. The first quarter of the hike is deep down in the canyon, following a creek which we had to cross at least 10 times, including some climbing. That strenuous part of the hike took us about half of our total time. Please note: the trail is NOT MARKED and NOT MAINTAINED! You must have a sense of finding the right way, otherwise this hike is not the right one for you. After that it is a nice uphill to the top of the backbone trail, leading you down from there to the parking lot with beautiful views from downtown LA to Santa Monica. It's tough but definitely my favorite trail in the SM Mountains.
Went to hike this because of all the wonderful reviews and the recent rain would make for a great waterfall! We got half a mile from the trailhead and had to stop because we lost sight of the trail with the stream and the overgrowth! We later saw a warning for poison oak, bee swarms and snakes!
Great trail however if you do it clock-wise.. trail is gone about .5 mile away from bottom. It doesn't exist. So we had to backtrack 2 miles
Great hiking gotta go again
Very good hike challenge the deeper you go happy camping mate
I like hiking, but I'm not physically fit for hiking uphills and going through rocky narrow paths and that's what this trail gave me mostly haha. Even though I feel like I almost died, this trail was such an adventure and we didn't even go through the graffiti abandoned buildings and the backbone bridge that everyone is talking about -- sadly, we didn't know about those spots. We had a friend who apparently has been here before who lead us through a looping wooden stairs (that's probably about 400 stairs) that's all covered in dirt and then we were supposed to go through this pathway thats over the edge of the mountain but it was closed so we decided to just go down, which was the muddy and wet creek area. Going through the creek was all our first times so we didn't even know what was ahead of us or what obstacles we had to face (even the guy who had been to Rustic Canyon trail before). Going through the creek felt like I was at an anaconda movie, thank goodness there weren't any snakes. After a rain and going through that creek with a non hiking shoes was not the greatest idea, but again it was an adventure. Then we finally found an actual trail path which lead us to the Will Rogers park and walked up through an actual trail (that's when we started to see other hikers..I was so happy. I thought I'd never get outta that creek). About .5-a mile into this canyon trail, we got lost of trying to go back to where we started without going through the creek. So we went back. Back down and through the creek. And that's when we realized that there were poison oaks at the creek. Going back up was the hardest. I had to stop so many times and my two friends who was with me had to keep motivating me that we were almost there. Going back up those wooden stairs killed me more, I told my friends to just leave me. I couldn't feel my legs.
If anyone has hiked the Potato Chip Rock, this hike was worse for me. I got battle scars all over my body from branches and thorns to prove it and a sore ass body the next morning. Again, it was an adventure but never again.
Erik L.
This was an interesting adventure. I took this clockwise (I'd recommend the other way for better views). In the direction I went...
The hike up to the peak is a great trail, well maintained, with spectacular view of the LA basin and Santa Monica Bay. Could see all the way to downtown LA, San Pedro Hill, Catalina, and even Santa Barbara Island.
The trail down to Rustic Canyon is somewhat overgrown and seriously eroded (but empty, if you want solitude). Fairly steep in places.
Upper Rustic Canyon has a number of deteriorated buildings and foundations, all covered in graffiti (an interesting psychedelic look on the 'barn'. Unfortunately, the graffiti extends to trees and rocks.
Lower Rustic Canyon is an 'unmaintained' trail... it's overgrown in places, but also it really means it is mostly in the creekbed, so with a few inches of water as there was today and many crossings, it requires some agility (and will result in wet feet, if you don't have good shoes). After a rain, it might be impassable in places.

Motor Row Lofts
You don't have to be an automotive buff to appreciate the history of Motor Row. Running from Indiana to Wabash and then 22nd Street to 24th Place, this area of Chicago dates back to 1905 when the automotive industry was just gaining momentum after Ford colonized Detroit and then tackled Michigan Avenue. It is in this very spot that several landmark buildings are being reborn into luxury housing in the form of two developments; Motor Row Lofts and Motor Row Condos.
Motor Row Lofts are a three building conversion starting on 2301 South Michigan Avenue. Back in their prime, these buildings were used as a Cadillac display center, a Chevrolet dealership and an automotive repair shop. Motor Row Development Corporation is not only renovating the interiors but is preserving and restoring the original building facades and keeping the brick and terra cotta finish.
The Lofts will display the wood timbers from the original construction and exposed brick on the walls. Inside, ceilings stretch an amazing 13 to 21 feet to create a wide open feeling in the units. The expansive windows let in lots of natural sunlight which aids in energy savings and brightens up every room. The floors are made from a beautiful natural hardwood and the lofts come with a fireplace, an added luxury that isn't often standard. Kitchens are outfitted with a stainless steel appliance package ready and waiting for the cook in your family. Durable granite counter tops are not only attractive but make a great surface for food preparation and clean ups are a breeze. Every unit also has a handy washer and dryer hook up ready to go. And residents can go up to the roof top deck anytime to take in the fantastic view of the downtown skyline.
A total of 52 lofts will be available and you can pick from the 36 layouts offered. Units have one to two bedrooms with optional den and a selection of three bedroom units as well. Prices start at around $235,000 and top out somewhere in the neighborhood of $659,000. Garage parking is available but comes at an additional cost of from $25,000 to $35,000. Since the buildings are vintage and have been preserved, the national Register of Historic Places is planning on adding them to their list, which would in turn give residents a break on both property taxes. An eight year freeze on assessments would occur when this happens.
Motor Row Condos will take up the 2300 South Michigan Avenue spot and be the first newly constructed condos in that area. MR Michigan Avenue was designed by Fitzgerald Associates and developed by Rokas International. This new construction seven story building will house 94 units. The one bedroom condo prices will start at the low $200,000 mark and two bedroom condos will sell from the mid $300,000 price range. Square feet varies from 696 to 1,279 per condo. The facade of this building is meant to compliment that of Motor Row Lofts, which sits just across from MR Michigan Avenue (Motor Row Condos). The exterior is divided off into three brick sections to mimic the three brick loft buildings.
Interior finishes are top notch and include solid wood core doors for long lasting security, chrome knobs and hardware, hardwood flooring in the kitchen, living room, dining room, and hallways plus wall to wall Berber carpeting in the bedrooms. The exposed concrete ceilings on floors two through six have a nine foot height and on floor seven they measure ten feet. The windows stretch from floor to ceiling and are double pane glass, which is energy efficient and aids in heating and cooling costs. The condos have a stackable model washer and dryer and come pre-wired for high speed Internet and multiple telephones. Deeded garage parking runs $27,500 per space.
No matter whether you purchase a Motor Row Loft or a Motor Row Condo, you are buying more than a great home. You get to experience a bit of Chicago history, both the automotive side and the vitality of the South Loop with its diverse neighborhoods and vibrant buildings. You can roll back in time while you enjoy all the modern luxuries of a contemporary loft or condo.

"Don't Be A Moana, Eiffel!"
The world's most famous picture and the world's most famous building, side by side, for Paris Set Me Free viewers' delectation - now don't say I never do anything for you...
Sorry about the ragged sticky tape and rather dishevelled appearance of said icons. Not my fault. Out of my hands.
Still, Lady Lisa doesn't seem too put out by her somewhat undignified predicament, and as for Mona Eiffel, she's bashfully hiding her nether regions behind a convenient awning and we can only presume she's not too impressed.

A college admission essay template is the tool used for pattern recognition of college admission essays. As the name suggests, these essays are written to qualify entrance examinations of colleges. Thus, the essay is required to be of superior quality in terms of presentation, matter and overall treatment of the topic. The general structure would remain the same but the main challenge lies in the way the writer makes the piece of writing interesting in spite of the same format comprising of an introduction, body and conclusion followed by all. The primary aim of the essay should be how to create an impression on the reader.

Here is my set up.
HDHomerun Extend, a dell inspiron running PLEX, several Roku's throughout my house. The transcoding on PLEX is set to Highest quality for the Extend.
I purchased the HDHomerun Extend because the description said that the hardware inside the Extend would take the burden of the transcoding. When I try running 2 live TV streams the CPU on my computer goes to 100% and I cannot watch either on my rokus as they are constantly buffering. I tried moving the transcoding to original format in the settings, but then ROKU said it could not display anything.
Please let me know how I can pass on most of the processing to the EXTEND.

This fucking chapter was another never-ending info dump, and yeah it moved the plot forward a bit. However, it was a chore to get through. In this first part it seems like most of these chapters are just filler. I said it earlier, but I'm going to repeat it again for those people sitting in the back. The first %25 percent of your novel is the most important to keeping their attention. This fact seemed to go way over Cassandra Clare's head.
This Chapter was boring, and had very little action to break up the exposition. However, before I get into the details of the many sins Clare made in this Chapter let's tackle the good parts first.
What I Loved
I'm going to admit right here and now that there is not a lot of good stuff to talk about in this chapter. However, the first good thing that really caught my attention was once again Clary's backbone. Clary actually stood up for herself when Alec tried to talk down to her, and I was here for *every second* of it. Alec (and Isabelle in the first part of this chapter) hasn't really endeared themselves to me at all. Alec just came off as just as much an asshole as Jace. However, instead of just laying down and taking it, Clary stood up to him and got right back up into Alec's face. Her argument was factually wrong, but I blame Clare's lack of research for that.
Her backbone continues to pleasantly surprise me, and I hope that it doesn't disappear later on in the books. And although Alec was a snobbish asshat throughout this entire chapter, I do like how unlike Jace, Alec questions everyone's idiotic assumptions that Clary killed the Ravener. It was like for that brief shinning moment Alec was injected with some actual common sense. Something, I would add, that this series desperately needs at this point.
Another big thing that I really liked for the most part was the Shadowhunters origin story. You can tell that Clare actually got off her duff and did some actual research for once. The whole story with the archangel Raziel giving his blood to humans in a cup (The Mortal Cup) to help battle the sudden influx of demons invading our dimension. I also liked that the cup itself later became powerful enough on its own that it could make new Shadowhunters without Raziel's direct intervention. It actually really made sense to me, and actually fit in with the book's overall theme of Angels vs. Demons. There are were a few things about the story that I nitpick (like for example the existence of God, and what role he had to play in the origin of the Shadowhunters) but I'm going to wait until later to see if Clare actually resolves the issues I had with it.

At the University of South Carolina's College of Education, we are committed to recruiting and educating a cadre of future teachers, but recruiting is only a small part of the remedy for the state's severe teacher shortage. The key to success is retention.
Last year, 6,482 S.C. teachers did not return to their classroom, according to the S.C. Center for Educator Recruitment, Retention and Advancement, and that number is rising each year. Even when teachers leave one school and join another, the impact on those schools and their students is immense: student learning losses in many cases are never recovered.
Additionally, teacher turnover costs S.C. school districts $23 million each year, according to the National Commission on Teaching and America's Future. This includes recruiting, hiring and training a new teacher but does not include district-level costs or other hidden expenses. If we could reduce the number of teachers leaving their current teaching positions by just 25 percent, we could save districts nearly $6 million annually.
How do we increase retention? Teacher support is key. Here at USC, we are implementing a three-year induction program to help new teachers through those often difficult first years of teaching. Simply put, we are committed to supporting teachers and increasing the likelihood they will stay in their classrooms.
We also need to do more to change the conversation about the teaching profession. It's easy to find criticisms of public education and teachers. Why would anyone aspire to become a teacher when there is so little respect for the profession? We need to do more to encourage those in the profession to stay and to inspire the best and brightest to choose teaching. This ultimately will include raising teacher salaries.
Some have suggested that we can solve our shortage with more alternative pathways to teacher certification. Last year in South Carolina, more than 65 percent of all teachers hired came from "traditional" pathways, whereas PACE (South Carolina's state-run alternative pathway), ABCTE (a private non-profit entity that the state has authorized to certify teachers) and Teach for America in total account for about 8 percent of teachers hired. The rest came from other states or countries or were inactive teachers returning to teaching.
One question I frequently hear is, "Why isn't someone with a content degree qualified to teach in the public schools?" This question focuses on creating quicker, less rigorous pathways so more individuals can qualify and fill our classrooms. This is not a solution, as many alternative, fast-track approaches simply de-professionalize teaching by emphasizing that a degree and a passion for children is all that is needed. Indeed, it's hard for me to believe that intelligent, well-meaning individuals would be willing to short change our youth with teachers who lack the knowledge, skills and dispositions needed to be effective, culturally competent educators.
I am hard-pressed to find other professions that have been subjugated to the 'anyone with a degree can do this' mentality.
I am hard-pressed to find other professions that have been subjugated to the "anyone with a degree can do this" mentality. And those who seek alternative certification typically leave the profession earlier and in higher numbers than those in traditional teacher education programs, exacerbating our retention problems.
If we are going to address the teacher shortage, we must focus equally on recruitment and retention efforts, and we must include both traditional and alternative routes that embody rigorous standards for teacher preparation. Our college is committed to looking to other states such as Kentucky, whose universities are creating alternative pathways that are substantial and of high quality, and working with our colleagues across the state to create similar opportunities.
If we continue to attempt to go it alone, our progress will be minimal. It is only through joint efforts that we will be able to recruit and retain the teachers we need for all schools and all children in South Carolina.

Liam Hemsworth Shows Off Bare Butt In Wetsuit Wardrobe Malfunction — Pics
Holy moly! The world got an eyeful of Liam Hemsworth's bare butt when he pushed his soaking wetsuit down a little too far after a fun day of surfing on June 20. Click to see the PICS!
Bare butt alert! Liam Hemsworth, 25, showed off his butt — yes, really — while changing from his wetsuit after surfing in Malibu on June 20. The Hunger Games hottie pushed his wetsuit down and accidentally revealed his butt cheeks to everyone. Even though Liam probably wasn't expecting cameras to capture this little mishap, this is undoubtedly the hottest wardrobe malfunction we've seen in awhile.
When the surf's up, Liam's butt comes out! As the youngest Hemsworth brother changed from his wetsuit to his normal clothes right by his black Cadillac, Liam suffered a bit of a malfunction. Instead of resting his wetsuit firmly on his hips, he pulled down the wetsuit way below that and exposed his bare butt! Click to see the pics of Liam's booty!
Liam put his tan lines and firm booty on display before covering up. But just like that, his bare butt was gone. Miley Cyrus' ex had just enjoyed a nice, refreshing surf in the Malibu waters. Boy, do those sexy Hemsworth boys love to surf!
Stars like Karrueche Tran, 27, Kim Kardashian, 34, and more have shown off their butts before, but we're going to have give the award for "Best Bare Butt" to Liam. Ladies, you know you agree.
Liam Hemsworth: Is Miley Cyrus' New Song About Him?
Aside from his adorable personality, it's obvious that Miley was clearly attracted to Liam's hot bod! The couple broke off their engagement in Sept. 2013, and Miley may still be emotional over the split. The starlet's latest song, "Nightmare," seems to be directed towards Liam. HollywoodLife.com learned EXCLUSIVE scoop about the new tune.
"She hasn't talked about ['Nightmare'] at all, but the lyrics sound like they're all about Liam," our source revealed. "She was blindsided by their breakup — she felt very abandoned."
HollywoodLifers, what do you think of Liam's wardrobe malfunction? The most shocking one of 2015? Let us know!
